Rayobyte

Rayobyte routes residential requests through a peer network where users have explicitly granted permission and can limit usage conditions. Per-request rotation is the default. Sticky sessions are available — the maximum sticky session duration is described only as 'a longer period of time' without a specific figure published on the residential product page. Rotating and sticky modes coexist within the same residential product without a plan change. Residential targeting parameters — country, state, city, and ASN — are all confirmed in the residential product FAQ.

ISP proxies are available in two distinct products: static ISP (list-based, no rotation) and rotating ISP (a separate product). Static ISP IPs are from 9+ ASNs with unlimited bandwidth at 1 Gbps. The specific country list for ISP proxies is not published — described only as 'numerous locations.' HTTP/HTTPS and SOCKS5 protocols are confirmed for ISP proxies. Inbound UDP is not documented. A Scraping API with 5,000 free monthly scrapes is confirmed on the homepage — this is a separate API product from the proxy network itself.

Datacenter proxies cover 300K+ IPs across 9 ASNs and 20,000+ C-class subnets in 27+ countries — the subnet and ASN diversity is documented with specific figures. Four datacenter formats are available: dedicated, rotating, semi-dedicated, and IPv6. Automatic 30-day IP replacements and instant individual replacements are both documented. EWDCI certified membership applies to the datacenter product as stated on the datacenter proxies page. PayPal, Google Pay, and Stripe are accepted.

Rayobyte documents residential sourcing with explicit user-rights controls: bandwidth contributors can limit what their connection is used for, opt out at any time, and are compensated for participation. This model is consent-based and user-controlled in a documented way. EWDCI certification — the Ethical Web Data Collection Initiative — applies to the datacenter product and reflects a verifiable membership, not a self-declared position. ISO 27001 is not documented in public evidence.

The datacenter product's 9 ASNs and 20,000+ C-class subnets give it a network diversity profile documented with specific subnet figures. Semi-dedicated datacenter proxies occupy a middle position between shared and dedicated — the format reduces the cost of exclusive assignment while limiting the sharing footprint compared to a fully shared pool. IPv6 datacenter proxies are available as a documented product format.

The Scraping API with 5,000 free monthly scrapes is structured as a gateway into the broader Rayobyte product set. Teams evaluating whether a managed scraping layer reduces infrastructure overhead can test the API at zero cost before committing to a paid tier. The residential and ISP proxy products are parallel options for teams that prefer a standard proxy-string approach over the managed API layer.

The residential pool is reported at 40M+ IPs — self-reported, no independent audit referenced. Country, state, city, and ASN targeting are all confirmed at no extra cost for residential proxies. Maximum sticky session duration is not published with a specific figure — the residential page describes it as 'a longer period of time.' Rotating and sticky sessions are both confirmed. Non-expiring PAYG residential traffic is documented.

Datacenter proxies: 300K+ IPs, 9 ASNs, 20,000+ C-class subnets, 27+ countries, dedicated/rotating/semi-dedicated/IPv6 formats, unlimited bandwidth, automatic 30-day replacements, and instant individual replacements. ISP proxies: static from 9+ ASNs with unlimited bandwidth at 1 Gbps; rotating ISP is a separate product. Mobile proxies start from $0.50/GB — mobile network details are not differentiated in the same depth as other product types in evidence.

HTTP/HTTPS and SOCKS5 protocols are confirmed for ISP proxies. Inbound UDP is not documented for any product type. Authentication includes username/password for residential. No uptime SLA with financial penalty for the datacenter product is published in the datacenter evidence. EWDCI membership is confirmed for the datacenter product on the datacenter proxies page specifically.

Residential proxies are PAYG with non-expiring traffic and subscription plans available alongside PAYG. A free residential trial is available via account creation. ISP proxies start at $4.60/IP for static. Rotating datacenter starts at $0.45/GB. Mobile starts at $0.50/GB. Custom billing applies above 5,000 GB per month. Static ISP pricing above 5,000 IPs per month also qualifies for custom billing. PayPal, Google Pay, and Stripe are the documented payment methods.

The Scraping API includes 5,000 free monthly scrapes on account signup — a recurring monthly allocation, not a one-time trial credit. DC and ISP trials require contacting support rather than self-serve account creation. No permanent free proxy tier exists outside the Scraping API free allocation. The non-expiring PAYG residential model means purchased traffic does not expire regardless of how long it takes to consume.

You gain ASN targeting on residential proxies at no extra cost — confirmed in the FAQ alongside country, state, and city. EWDCI certified membership is a documented compliance credential. The datacenter pool includes 9 ASNs and 20,000+ C-class subnets. IPv6 datacenter proxies are available as a documented product format. Non-expiring PAYG residential traffic. Scraping API with a recurring 5,000 free monthly scrapes. Consent-based residential sourcing with documented user opt-out rights and compensation.

You give up published sticky session duration — the maximum is described without a specific number, which makes session architecture design dependent on empirical testing. ISO 27001 is not documented. ISP proxy country coverage is not enumerated — 'numerous locations' is the only documentation. Mobile proxy network depth is less documented than the residential and datacenter products. Datacenter and ISP trials require support contact rather than self-serve account creation. UDP protocol support is not documented for any product type.

• ASN targeting on residential proxies is a hard requirement — Rayobyte confirms this at no extra cost in the residential FAQ
• EWDCI certified membership is a procurement requirement and you're working with a datacenter proxy use case where that certification applies
• IPv6 datacenter proxies are required — the format is documented across Rayobyte's datacenter product at dedicated and rotating tiers
• You want to test a managed Scraping API alongside traditional proxy access — 5,000 free monthly API scrapes allow parallel evaluation
• Non-expiring PAYG residential traffic suits your variable volume pattern

Rayobyte's constraints are structural, not incidental:

• You need a published maximum sticky session duration to architect a reliable multi-step session workflow — the residential documentation describes it only as 'a longer period of time' without a specific figure
• Your procurement requires ISO 27001 certification — this is not documented in public evidence for Rayobyte
• You need ISP proxies in specific countries and must verify coverage before purchasing — the ISP country list is not enumerated in public documentation
• UDP protocol support is required — it is not documented for any Rayobyte proxy product
• Your operation exceeds 5,000 GB per month and you need transparent tiered pricing without a custom billing engagement

If Rayobyte's undocumented sticky session ceiling or ISO gap are blockers:

• Decodo — ISO 27001:2022 and EWDCI co-founder with sticky sessions documented up to 24 hours; fits if a published session maximum and named certification are both required
• SOAX — documents ISP targeting alongside UDP and QUIC protocol support; fits if protocol breadth is the driving requirement alongside ISP targeting on residential
• ProxyEmpire — data that never expires even without subscription, confirmed ASN targeting, and a $1.97 trial; fits if data permanence and ASN targeting are both needed at a lower entry point

Use Rayobyte if ASN targeting on residential proxies and EWDCI certified datacenter access matter to your use case, if IPv6 datacenter proxies are a requirement, or if you want to evaluate a Scraping API alongside proxy access at no upfront cost. Skip it if a published sticky session maximum is needed for session architecture design, if ISO 27001 is a procurement requirement, or if ISP proxy country coverage must be verifiable before purchasing.
